I heavily doubt that abbreviating the 14 bytes of "-printf '%f\n'" on the command line to a new action like e.g. -printbase makes _any_ difference in any case (neither in the trivial case with an empty directory nor when diving into many hundred-thousands of subdirectories). > ...

A patch for a new test case demonstrating the deficiency ("test driven development") would be much appreciated. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51506> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
